Who would have thought a year and a half later the trials of Covid are still with us?
It is a pandemic that has truly forced us to reflect and question what is important.
As we fast and sacrifice food and drink during the daylight hours, we are reminded of those who are less fortunate than us and are encouraged to be charitable. Ramadan is a month of giving and sharing, a time for generosity.
Therefore, together with my sisters, Nuha Mohideen and Safa Mohideen, we would like to encourage generosity during this holy month of Ramadan, in order to help our immediate community.
The last ten days of Ramadan holds the greatest significance and we have decided to collectively run/swim/cycle 200km during the coming days. We will be using our outdoor track facilities in and around our compound "District 1" to raise funds for the ‘UAE’s 100 million meals campaign’.
Without a doubt, with the help of our generous friends and family we will be able to make a tremendous impact to those in need.
Your support will be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Afrah Mohideen

Thank you for the overwhelming support! We have completed 100 km- collectively biking and running! Alhamdullilah-another 100 KM to go!
Will update with photos next time! Its been a little slow this year as we started the challenge later on in Ramdan so combining it with night prayers has been a little tough. We are fortunate we can venture out quite late here in Dubai! Its also been somewhat cooler for us too! Take care and enjoy these few days of Ramadan for those who are fasting! Keep Safe!

#UpdateDear All,
Thank you so much for taking the time to support us.
We finished the 200 km just after Eid! Sorry for late update!
It was quite challenging towards the end as its becoming increasingly warmer here in Dubai.
